The Unbreakable Huawei Mate XT?
Have you ever wondered how much you could put your smartphone through? Imagine a tri-foldable phone enduring brutal tests without suffering even a scratch! The Huawei Mate XT may just redefine durability in the smartphone world. A recent jaw-dropping video shows the Mate XT being tossed to the ground, unfolded repeatedly, and even slammed underfoot—all without a visible mark. Could this be the toughest phone on the market today?

As we step into 2026, discerning real videos from AI-generated ones can be a challenge, but this footage appears convincingly authentic. While the material of the floor remains ambiguous, if it is indeed solid, Huawei deserves commendation for engineering such a rugged device.
Is This Enough to Change Your Mind About Tri-Foldables?
The Galaxy Z TriFold is currently priced around $3,270 in the UAE. On its launch in 2024, the Huawei Mate XT was available for approximately $3,000. However, due to scalper activities, its resale price peaked at around $10,000, occasionally reaching a staggering $22,000. The luxury market for high-end devices is certainly an amusing spectacle.
Meanwhile, Oppo has revealed that it has fully functional tri-fold prototypes but has no immediate plans for release, citing the hefty price tag (likely over $2,400), which it deems a barrier to widespread adoption.
